On being asked about whether Conor will Show up in Brooklyn for UFC-249 (Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Tony Ferguson), Dana replied, “No, he’s not gonna be there. Conor’s ready to slide into that slide. Conor fought at 170 and fought at the beginning of the year because he wanted to be able to cut and make weight if one of those two (Tony or Khabib) fall out.
Responding to a question regarding Conor’s future fights with other fighters such as Jorge Masvidal or Kamaru Usman, Dana said, “Not happening. Conor’s not fighting anyone else. He’s focussed on Khabib. He wants the Khabib fight. He’ll wait for that.”
